About this Simulation

This interactive pendulum toy models the fundamental principles of simple harmonic motion (SHM) and oscillatory behavior. Learners can adjust pendulum parameters and observe how displacement, velocity, and acceleration vary over time through real-time graphs and visual animation.

Learning objectives: Understand the relationship between period and pendulum length in SHM | Analyse velocity and acceleration patterns during oscillation | Investigate energy transformation between potential and kinetic forms
